Lifelong Learning among Islamic Education Teachers

Open access
The fourth industrial revolution (IR4.0) is expected to accelerate occupational change, with new professions emerging while others are left behind. Therefore, it is certain that this development will lead to a change in social status and demand a big change both in education and learning. However, the results of previous studies found that teachers still lack knowledge and skills in teaching. Therefore, Islamic Education teachers are seen as frontliners who are exposed to progress and should take the initiative to improve their knowledge, skills, and professionalism, as organized by the Malaysian Ministry of Education. Lifelong learning, also known as continuous learning, is also related to the aim of shaping and developing people to become knowledgeable, faithful, and righteous Muslims. This concept paper aims to examine the lifelong learning practices of Islamic education teachers (GPI). This concept paper can be used as a reference for GPIs in an effort to improve their learning practices.
